Call me crazy, but I found myself getting sort of emotional watching this emoji-filled video for Beyonce's "Drunk In Love." A lot of ink has been spilled about emojis as a medium for communication, but I've never really bought into it until now.

Someone threw a weave (their weave? someone else's weave?) at Beyoncé this weekend at the O2 in London while she was performing "XO." Queen Bey, of course, took the weave attack in stride: she stopped singing for a brief moment to admonish, "You got me snatching wigs, snatching wigs!" [Global Grind] Orlando…

Okay, internet, you can go home for the day. This flaaaaaawlessssssss "Drunk In Love"/Dunkin Donuts parody video from the Bay Area's Adrian Anchondo and Reggie D. White has owned this day. OPEN ALLLLL NIGHT! [via Jezebel]…

Hey guys: Thanks to the Beyonce Soundboardt, instead of communicating feedback as regular ol' boring Amelia, I will now be addressing you as Beyonce. If I like your blog ideas for the day? That gets a "Good Good." Especially impressed? "GOD DAMN." Oh yeah, and my outfit today? "I WOKE UP LIKE…

If you listen to the radio at all, "Drunk In Love" is probably stuck in your head on a repeating loop most days. I love it as much as the next girl, but how about giving a new rendition of the song a shot? No, Kanye's remix…

I love each and every song on Beyonce's recent self-titled album, but I have a special soft spot for "Drunk In Love," her collab with husband Jay Z. I mean, it's sexy, fun to dance to and hilarious. Surfboart? "Graining on that wood"? "Her breasteses are my breakfastes"? While the song is perfect as is, that didn't stop Kanye…

When Amy Poehler and Will Arnett called it quits, I was totally bummed. When Taye Diggs and Idina Menzel were dunzo, I despaired. Don't even get me started on Britney and Justin, whose demise I am still not over. With the devastating demise of Hollywood relationships, it's easy to throw in the towel and give up all…

I didn't think it was possible for me to love Beyonce and Jay Z's collab "Drunk In Love" any more than I already do, but then I saw U.S. Olympic ice-dancing duo Meryl Davis and Charlie White skate to it (by which I mean, the music was synced and dubbed over their routine) and, well,…

The Women's and Gender Studies Department at Rutgers University in New Jersey is offering a class called "Politicizing Beyoncé," which uses the pop star as a lens to examine racial and sexual issues in America, particularly as they pertain to Black feminism. All students need to earn at least a "Bey" to pass the class.

A copy of Lorde's birth certificate has been presented to the world this week, courtesy of The Hairpin. The form proves that Lorde really is 17, which will no doubt anger the cult of "Lorde birth truthers" that believe she's lying about her age and is actually much older. I suppose there'…

Last night were the 2014 Grammy Awards! As per usual, they went on way too long and featured a lot of awkward dancing from Taylor Swift. But Bey and Jay were there! And so was Lorde! And the Highwaymen! So it wasn't a complete loss. Let's review the best moments in GIFs, pics and videos...

A British radio station called Bang Radio has edited out lyrics of Beyoncé and Jay Z's song "Drunk In Love" that reference domestic violence. Init, Jay Z raps "Now eat the cake, Anna Mae / I said eat the cake, Anna Mae," which is a reference to the film "What's Love Got To Do With…

How could we have missed this? An a cappella group called Pentatonix (yes, people do a cappella outside of college) filmed a medley of 28 rapid-fire Beyoncé songs in only six minutes. All your favorites from the Bey ouevre make an appearance. "Say My Name"? Duh. "Survivor"? Check. "Single Ladies"? Yup. "Halo"? Obviously. Okay, some…

By the looks of the new photos Beyonce just put on her Tumblr, Blue Ivy's 2nd birthday party puts all of my birthday parties over the years to shame, and not just because I typically plan them the night before in a last ditch effort. There was face paint, and dancing, and the other two-third of Destiny'…

Does this woman sleep ever? Ever? Beyoncé has written an essay for The Shriver Report: A Woman's Nation Pushes Back From The Brink, an investigation by journalist Maria Shriver in conjunction with the Center For American Progress, on the status of women in America today. Beyoncé's essay, "Gender Equality Is A Myth," can be read in the…

I'm not saying Beyonce's original needed to be fucked with, but this remix, featuring Busta and Azealia's even more explicit rhymes on top of "Partition"'s sparse beat, is a fine addition to your mega Yonce playlist. Hot. [Fader]…

Jay Z and Beyonce rented out Jungle Island, a wildlife park in Miami, for Blue Ivy's 2nd birthday on Tuesday. That explains why Bey and Kelly Rowland were at a South Beach karaoke bar on Tuesday night! Does this mean there will be cute pictures of Bey and a kangaroo? […

Beyonce and Kelly Rowland crashed a karaoke session two ladies were having at a South Beach karaoke bar on Tuesday night! Bey, Kelly and Jay Z showed up at a near-empty karaoke bar called the Sing Song and heard two women singing one of Beyonce's songs from a private room. Naturally, they came inside and…

Beyonce and Jay Z's little bundle of cuteness, Blue Ivy Carter, turns two years old today. Needless to say, in just 24 months, she's had more fun than I have in my entire life. Let's review just 10 of the reasons Blue has the best lifestyle...

Simply Irresistible

Taking a page out of those girls you went to high school with who can't stop smugly posting every detail of their perfect lives on Facebook, Lady Gaga shaded America's youngest grandma Taylor Swift just perfectly on Twitter yesterday. It all started when Jaime King's unborn child's godmother tweeted about Gaga, using the preferred…

Oh look, it's hottest DILF alive, Ryan Gosling, making a rare appearance in public grabbing lunch in LA today. And what's that I see? In addition to his perfectly worn T-shirt (that collar is stretched just so), hoodie and leather jacket, the Gos is rocking a few faint letters on his knuckles, spelling out the…
